CURRENT MISSION

Hi I'm currently creating books and films in my region.

ABOUT ME

I now live on the coast a short walk from the beach. Formerly I lived in a communal house - very lively & international, where we all enjoy taking turns cooking. I have two wonderful now grown up children - in the UK and USA.
I'm an author of children's books, radio presenter, workshop leader, script developer and filmmaker.

PHILOSOPHY
Follow your bliss!

Life is supposed to be fun! I love life and want to share the pleasure of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to travel more and experience where I am visiting more. So staying with people through couchsurfing gives a better feel for a place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to this! I am used to living in communities and having regular visitors staying from around the world. Now I am enjoying travelling more myself!

Interests

I love presenting occasional chat shows on my local community radio station, walking, wild water swimming and films.

Music, Movies, and Books

Films: Amelie, Touching the Void, How to Tame Your Dragon, The Martian, Interstellar are just some of the films I love.
Books : The Power of Now had a profound effect on me. I used to read a lot of crime fiction, now I prefer more magical books!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paragliding over Butterfly Valley in Turkey.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love hearing people's stories - and often help them realise their dream of telling it in one form or another: on radio I invite people to share their passion and dreams with the audience; I encourage people to write their stories in workshops I run in books or film.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my cooking skills, shiatsu or energy work skills.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United States
